Speaking about the role, he says “I play a rockstar in the film. It will be a different role, as not many have portrayed a rockstar in Telugu films. There is a rockstar in every person. When the time comes, it will be revealed,” he shares.

About his future projects, he says, “I’m working in ‘Anaamika’ with Sekhar Kammula where the character surprises the audience, ‘Maya’ with Neelakanta’ and one film with Allari Naresh. I am fortunate to have worked with established directors in early part of my career,” he adds.
